I'm a born-and-bred London boy who has become obsessed with getting out of London and seeing everywhere I can afford to! I love Europe, I love Asia, I love everywhere with interesting and friendly people. I had the best time of my life last year when I spent four months in Berlin, something I'd love to do again as soon as I can. I'm a politics student and I love talking politics (but don't really love arguing, I'd rather just get along with everyone regardless of their political views).

I wanna meet as many people as I can, crash on peoples' sofas and go out with anybody from anywhere. I'm so interested in different cultures so if you have something from your country that's culturally significant or interesting, I usually carry around things to do little cultural exchanges with.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of meeting as many people as possible, hanging out, having some beer or some wine and learning about new cultures and ideas. I like university because I get exposed to new ideas and people but prefer stuff like this because I actually get to meet real people and hear about things that are real and genuine. Looking for places to crash and people to hang out with! One day, when I own my own home, I'll host people all the time! I know London is so expensive and I can't wait to make sure people can stay in my amazing city by paying in stories not money.

Interests

Politics is my main thing. I write about politics, talk about politics, and study politics. You don't have to be interested in politics to get along with me, but it helps! I love hearing about new cultures and the experiences of other people, I love being exposed to new ideas too. I get along with anyone who has a passion, I'm interested in hearing about anything as long as you're passionate about it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Annie Hall is my favourite movie, but I also love Goodfellas, Birdman, Boyhood, The Social Network, and Little Miss Sunshine. I'm also a fan of classic movies like The Third Man and La Strada. My favourite band is Radiohead, and I love a lot of great British musics like the Smiths, Joy Division, and The Beatles. I'm into newer music like The Lemon Twigs, Whitney, and Mac DeMarco. I love Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami, and also like a lot of non-fiction, interested in the history and politics of Germany and most other European countries, but would love to get to know more about the politics of other continents that I don't know so much about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Berlin for four months before I went to university with my girlfriend, which was amazing. I loved finally being independent and travelling to a totally new part of the world. I'd love to go back there.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're not fluent in English I'm happy to help you learn! I know a lot about British politics and some British political history so if you're interested in that I'm always up for long (long!) discussions. I read a lot of non-fiction books so I've always got a lot to talk about with people, but I'm still learning and I know everyone will have a lot to teach me. I believe pretty strongly that the world is best when you understand that every single person can teach you something or give you an experience that you'll learn from. On the more mundane side of things, I'm fairly proficient with technology so if you need help setting up a Wordpress website or fixing something that seems to be a bit dodgy, I can probably help with that.
